● Never push the starter button while the
engine is running.
●
Do not keep the starter motor turning for
more than 5 seconds. If the starter motor
is turned continuously for more than 5
seconds, the battery will be quickly dis-
charged, thus making it impossible to
start the engine. The starter can also be
damaged. If the engine will not start after
5 seconds of cranking, release the start-
er button, wait 10 seconds, then crank
the engine again.
7. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully
closed position.
8. Return the choke knob to the home posi-
tion gradually.
NOTE:
●
If the choke knob is left in the “” (start)
position while the engine is running, the en-
gine will run poorly or stall.
●
When the engine is cold, for example, when
the ambient temperature is low in winter, it
needs to be warmed up. For further infor-
mation, see page 44.
